摘要: A new model of room temperature resistance bolometers is described, which includes all effects electrothermal coupling. It based on one main operating parameter named thermal bias and offers a simple way to find optimal conditions for certain bolometer construction. The yields reliable estimates the achievable NEP detectivity D* given design it enables comparison competing technologies namely with respect thermistor material employed.
